That's interesting to note since I've read there are a lot of women doctors in Afghanistan. But- a whole generation has been raised with the Taliban forcing basically no education and no public life for women, so I could see the literacy rate of women being higher for those who had the fortune to be allowed to attend school before the Taliban came into rule (probably those aged 30 to 40 as that would place them as teenagers between Soviet and Tribal conflicts).
